Transistors - NPN & PNP - Basic Introduction

This electronics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into NPN and PNP transistors which are known as BJTs or Bipolar Junction Transistors. This video discusses the 3 operating regions of a transistor - the cutoff, active, and saturation region. It also explains how the transistors act as switches and how to determine the current and voltages in a transistor base bias circuit.

Well done

[@stopforever366]

in this video we gona say about TRANS - SISTORS , that hit me hard bro , nice guide video lecture

[@ponexben8362]

ok

[@joshuasteiner5568]

It doesn't matter how far I get into college, he is still here helping me. My hero.

[@ninetynineknives]

You have no idea how crucial was your contribution to my education. Thanks for the videos, you're doing an amazing job.

[@dubzy21]

This dude is such a fucking legend. Saved my ass freshman year and helped me pass chemistry after I had a D at thanksgiving break. Haven’t learned much in my electronics class that I took a year ago and I’m so lost in electronics 2 now and here he is saving me again. This man is a genius and has a gift for teaching others 🙌🏻

[@josephguida5432]

15 years ago a Darlington transistor pair popped up on the 10th question of my 80 question Master Electrician exam. I was like...”What is this sorcery?”. I had no clue what I was looking at. The prep course for that exam didn’t go too far with electronics, diodes etc. Transistors, explained by this tutor, were the perfect gateway for me to go beyond timer relays and basic sensor knowledge.

[@herrlich1461]

I hope you made it through your entire course, man. 👍

[@dubzy21]

@@herrlich1461 I have brother I have a nice job now 🙂 appreciate it

[@JHunterJoe]

You are literally the reason i have passed school. I never understand my professors due to there heavy accents and they always teach way too fast and too much at one time. Somehow you always have a video that explains in depth exactly what i'm learning. You deserve an award, thank you very much brother

[@gman4reel]

Wow, that is what I call Teaching. Simple electronics never before became that simple to me. Very easy to understand and interact with.

[@maryammojtabavi]

I didn't learn this concept with 2 college courses but with this video, I finally learned it. Thank you so much!

[@ralphacosta4726]

This guy really does lay things out well. Helps me to remember the emitter arrow always points to the negative and the base is connected to the positive if it's a P or to the negative if it's an N. I need all the hints i can get to help me remember which way things go.

[@munwa.tsikalangwe1352]

I thanks everyone who has prepared the videos that helps me to understand auto electrical.

[@ih271]

ngl, this is the best educational channel, i literally found everything that i had a problem with, most teachers didn't make it to teach us this way, and u simply did it, Thank you so much

[@iot_enthusiast]

Very nicely explained! Clarity of thought stems from strong fundamentals!

[@fabianm.2982]

Great content!! Wish you were my lecturer during my electronic 101 basics back in the days. In one video I learned more than I grasp in a semester. It will be well with you Sir..

[@stephenmanis5258]

Excellent breakdown on transistors, thank you!

[@Jan_Seidel]

*FINALLY* first time someone explained to me in its entirety and made me be able to wrap my head around. Cheers mate :)

[@noural-sammarraie7361]

Whenever I feel like dropping out, I find your videos and fall in love with electrical engineering again :) you saved my life in high school and now in uni. Thank you so much

[@user-ny8no3vz2l]

It was definitely better than 2 hour lecture I attended yesterday, thank you

[@anthonyebhohon9364]

WHAT A PRESENTATION. I appreciate you a lot for the content of this video. I legitimately thought I had no hope of understanding the nature of transistors until I gave this video a try. Thank You 100x for the great electronic explanations.

[@Liteskinxo]

This man can teach anything. Best youtube teacher no cap

[@crudeessence2805]

Julio Gonzalez ⚛️☢️ my favourite tutor since 8th standard I'm at 12th rn best explanation ever🙏

[@johnmorgan6724]

This is the first of yours that I've watched. I like the the dark screen and clarity of the explanation. Thanks!

[@kagonkhan2586]

Holy shit i love you so much. I have just started electronics course, and we are having transistors atm. Since the lectures are garbage you are helping me out a ton! Please more content related to transistors / OpAmps / Oscillators

[@nur-6c]

Dude check on his playlist called Electronic

[@Jnoel608]

Great video. I’ve seen many videos from many teachers but one thing or another is always missing in the intuition. So I learn something different with each video. Had no idea transistors act like diodes connected to each other.

[@rizmi73]

Thanks mate, you are a great teacher. Loving it.

[@brandonwiggins909]

I've listened too literally almost every tutorial on transistors but you explain everything in a way my brain can comprehend it PLEASE appreciate what seeds have planted w/me and others and I sincerely pray you get to see the fruit you alone have grown in this lifetime

[@lloydbotway5930]

Excellent explanation, and easy-to-understand diagrams.

[@nolezosa8912]

WOW! Very well explained. Thanks for the info sir. Keep uploading videos. You're great.

[@egrette6058]

It's funny how I am most interested in electronics out of all subjects I take, but I suck at it and score lowest marks for electronics

[@cameramaster41]

creative ability locked in constraints of how we currently understand easy paths of orchestrating commands. demand for higher efficiency and creativity is essential to solving the problem

[@life_score]

This deserves an award!

[@gracielazaffarana9777]

Excellent!

[@BallisticDamage]

You have great teaching skills,just a small tip,when drawing a transistor symbol don't connect C and E,it is wrong to do so cuz it looks like C and E are connected directly. Keep up!

[@ayo9344]

I thought they were connected so I second this guys comment.
